With Lavazza it's all about the blend Feb 26, 2009
By KRT Lavazza coffee is wonderful but the different blends are, well, different. I really like the Caffe Espresso because of the heavier slightly bitter/strong but also slightly chocolaty-sweet taste and the aroma. I use a Mocha/stovetop espresso pot so that makes a different kind of brew too.
Caffe espresso is 100% Arabica beans as is Oro. I find the latter a bit rougher/stronger. Then, the wise folks at Lavazza start blending in Robusto beans and for those of you that like super smooth, less bitter you need to try these... Crema e Gusto is at the farthest end of the spectrum - 70% Robusto 30% Arabica and dark roasted (usually they make a medium roast I think), super creamy, nice as Americano or a straight, milder espresso, me I don't think it stands up as a cappuccino. Next in line is Crema e Aroma - 60% Robusto. I haven't had this in years. Middle ground? That's Rossa with its 30% Robusto and 70 Arabica...this might be my favorite as espresso.
There's a few other blends but they are newer and I haven't tried them...
Amazon should offer a taster pack!
Happy espresso drinking!

Are you kidding me? Oct 29, 2008
By E. Sharon I'm reading the other reviews and I'm quite shocked!!! This is absolutely one of the best commercial coffee blends you can find out there. not too bitter not to sweet, excellent crema, delightful! I have a Gaggia espresso machine, I drink it every morning and occasionally make cappuccino to my guests, they all L-O-V-E it. Warmly recommended, light years better than the sour-greasy-burnt American coffee (Starbucks, Seattle's Best, Peet's etc...)

Mmmm. Jan 03, 2009
By A. Catanzaro I've been buying Illy Medium Roast espresso and decided to try something new. Lavazza is the winner! I have been ordering it from Amazon for months now. The 4-pack is a great deal. Nice flavor, not too bold or bitter, even a little sweet? Perhaps I am not equipped to describe it as a coffee connoisseur, but I do know it makes my mornings a little better!

By S. Robinson I've been drinking Lavazza for 10 years. My favorite coffee is Illy, but at about half the price, this is great value. Lavazza is always smooth so make it strong and enjoy.

Excellent, as always! Sep 09, 2009

If you are used to Peet's Coffee & Starbucks...don't bother with this coffee. By now you are going to be used to overly-roasted (burnt is not synonym of flavorful) coffee and anything mildly roasted is going to seem flavorless to you.
If you, on the other hand, haven't compromised your taste buds with horrible coffees like Peet's & Starbucks- feel welcomed to enjoy this jewel of a coffee.
It's chocolate-y, not fruity like Kona or Blue Mountain, without a hint of bitterness (even if you brew it ristretto-style), it produces a rich, caramel-colored crema, and it's actually lower in caffeine than it's burnt-roast counterparts. That's the beauty of the medium roast.
I learned about this coffee while living in Sicily and got hooked ever since. It's the best of Lavazza's line of coffee (Blue has a deeper taste, Rossa is even milder) and it's my favorite.
